Japanese aid helps northern Afghan camp as rice arrives
Hundreds of displaced men at a northern Afghanistan camp grip ration cards while aid workers cut open 220 pound rice sacks donated by Peace Winds. The 46 tons of food reach a 10,000 person camp after earlier Red Cross deliveries. An explosion in Mazar-e-Sharif wounds about 100 people, described as a terrorist act by the local health minister.
